Dear all,
You can have a look at the paper I published with Rosemary Luff in 1995 entitled "Killing cats in the medieval period. An unusual episode in the history of Cambridge, England". Archaeofauna 4, pp.93-114. Figure 18 shows three cat scapulae with chop marks through their necks.
Here it is the link:

Does anyone know of any examples of butchered cat scapulae? Any references, images, thoughts welcome. My instincts tell me that this is an unlikely occurrence given that the main reason for finding butchery marks on cat bones would be as a result of skinning and that scapulae would be unlikely to be affected, but I just thought I'd ask.
Many thanks,
Julia
